    YaaaY!

    I was actually starting to miss these. I know realise why I used to dislike them so much - all those bloody Star Trek quotes.

    Now they're gone (or at least heavily diluted), quotes rule!

    Back to the ROOTS of addiction. My first missed poll!

      some good ones.

      I prefer the quotes from the Polytubbies as well, but they're kind of like laughing at a retarded, dancing monkey. You know it's wrong, but yet you're still amused.

          -- Comrade Tassadar
          Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
          Then why call him God? - Epicurus

                          Hmmm, let's see, I got some in a dark dusty corner of my hard drive somewhere...



                          The first human who hurled an insult instead of a stone was the founder of civilisation.
                          -- Sigmund Freud

                          If the spoon don't dissolve, it ain't coffee!

                          When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane.

                          Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.

                          If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

                          If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

                          For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism.

                            You can't go wrong with Will Rogers:


                            POLITICS

                            "I belong to no organized party. I am a Democrat."

                            "There ought to be one day-just one-when there is open season on senators."

                            "You can't say that civilization don't advance, however, for in every war they kill you in a new way."

                            "I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts."

                            "The man with the best job in the country is the vice President. All he has to do is get up every morning and say, 'How's the President?'"

                            "Elections are a good deal like marriages. There's no accounting for anyone's taste. Every time we see a bridegroom we wonder why she ever picked him, and it's the same with public officials."

                            "If you ever injected truth into politics you'd have no politics."

                            "The income tax has made more liars out of the American people than golf has."

                            "If all politicians fished instead of spoke publicly, we would be at peace with the world."

                            "Politics is the best show in America. I love animals and I love politicians and I love to watch both of 'em play either back home in their native state or after they have been captured and sent to the zoo or to Washington."

                            "If we ever pass out as a great nation we ought to put on our tombstone, 'America died from a delusion that she has moral leadership."

                            LIFE

                            "We are all here for a spell; get all the good laughs you can."

                            "Try to live your life so that you wouldn't be afraid to sell the family parrot to the town gossip."

                            "The Lord so constituted everybody that no matter what color you are you require the same amount of nourishment."

                            "Civilization has taught us to eat with a fork, but even now if nobody is around we use our fingers."

                            "Half our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save."

                            "Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there."

                            "I wonder if it isn't just cowardice instead of generosity that makes us give tips."

                            "Broad-minded is just another way of saying a fellow is too lazy to form an opinion."

                            TRUTH/STUPIDITY

                            "An ignorant person is one who doesn't know what you have just found out."

                            "Everyone is ignorant, only in different subjects."

                            "Nothing you can't spell will ever work."

                            "There is two types of larceny, Petty and Grand. They are supposed to be the same in the eyes of the law, but judges always put a little extra on you for Petty, which is kind of a fine for stupidness."

                            "If stupidity got us into this mess, then why can't it get us out?"

                            (yeah!)

                            "People are getting smarter nowadays; they are letting lawyers, instead of their conscience, be their guide."

                            "No man is great if he thinks he is."

                            (unless you're me, right?)

                            "I guess truth can hurt you worse in an election than about anything that can happen to you."

                            "Nothing makes a man, or a body of men, as mad as the truth. If there is no truth in it, they laugh it off."

                            "Rumor travels faster, but it don't stay put as long as truth."

                            RANDOM

                            "Never miss a good chance to shut up."

                            "Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier 'n puttin' it back in."

                            "Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment."

                            "There's two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither one works."

                            (Don't we know it)

                            "Don't let yesterday use up too much of today."

                            "My ancestors didn't come over in the Mayflower-they met the boat."

                            "My father was one eighth Cherokee and my mother one fourth Cherokee, which I figure makes me about an eight cigar-store Injun."

                            "Everything is funny as long as it is happening to somebody else."

                            "Fanatical religion driven to a certain point is almost as bad as none at all, but not quite."

                            "You shake a slogan at an American and it's just like showing a hungry dog a bone."

                            "The only time people dislike gossip is when you gossip about them."

                            "All Wrigley had was an idea. He was the first man to discover that American jaws must wag. So why not give them something to wag against?"

                            "Everything is changing. People are taking the comedians seriously and the politicians as a joke."

                            "We can't all be heroes because somebody has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by."

                            "Things will get better-despite our efforts to improve them."

                            "I never met a man I didn't like."
